Display Php Array result in an Html table

Question

I was trying to display an array in php to an HTML table but there's an issue. I found several examples here in stack overflow, but they don't work for my case.

Controller:

<?php include('inc/db_connect.php');?>

<?php
try
{
  $sql = "SELECT id GroupName, VideoTITLE, ByArtist FROM videoclip";
  $result = $pdo->query($sql);
}
catch(PDOException $e)
{
  $error = 'unable to fetch data: '.$e->getMessage();
  include'error.html.php';
  exit();
}
$URLS = array();
while ($row = $result->fetch())
{
  $URLS[] = array('id' => $row['id'], 'GroupName' => $row['GroupName'], 'VideoTITLE' => $row['VideoTITLE'], 'ByArtist'=> $row['ByArtist'] );
}

html:

<div id="table_admin" class="span7">
        <h3>Videoclip List</h3>

        <table class="table table-striped table-condensed">

                <thead>
                <tr>
                <th>Song name</th>
                <th>Group name </th>
                <th>Artist </th>
                </tr>
                </thead>
            <?php foreach ($URLS as $URL){
                echo'<tbody>';
                echo'<tr>'; 
                echo'<td>'. $row['VideoTITLE']."</td>";
                echo'<td>'. $row['GroupName'].'</td>';
                echo'<td>'. $row['ByArtist'].'</td>';
                echo'<tr>';
                echo'</tbody>';
              }
            ?>

        </table>

    </div>

You're close:

</thead>
<tbody>
<?php 
    foreach ($URLS as $URL){
        echo'<tr>'; 
        echo'<td>'. $URL['VideoTITLE']."</td>";
        echo'<td>'. $URL['GroupName'].'</td>';
        echo'<td>'. $URL['ByArtist'].'</td>';
        echo'<tr>';
    }
?>
</tbody>

Since you're taking the values of the $URLS array and calling each one $URL you need to refer to $URL for each row's value. Not the $row variable you originally used to populate the array from the database results.

FYI, you may want to look into htmlentities() to escape your data to help prevent XSS attacks.
